New Prayer Requests
· From Bruce & Cinda McKellips: “It is with great sadness that we leave our Ecuadorian brothers and sisters as well as our missionary family. God has been so good to us. What a privilege and a joy it has been to serve the Lord in this beautiful country for the past 13 years. The last couple of months have been a whirlwind of goodbyes on the various districts and in many churches. The people have beautifully expressed their love and appreciation for us. While it has been heart-wrenching, it has also been wonderful to see some of the fruits of our labors and see how God has blessed the church in Ecuador. We truly appreciate your prayers and support over the years. Please continue to uplift us in prayer. We will be traveling on “home assignment” for the next several months and then settle in Arizona in December. In January, Bruce will begin his position as associate pastor with his dad at the Sun City Church of the Nazarene. You can contact us by e-mail at bruceandcindamck@gmail.com.”
